I am no expert on line endings, but I had thought, and this wikipedia 
site

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newline

suggests, that the line ending that *should* be used in Linux is
x 0A (LF line feed), not
x 0D (CR)

If your autogenerated file shows the MESSAGE_SIZE_LIMIT = 200M 
followed immediately by <##################> then the exim system 
(possibly) doesn't like the CR line ending.

[That was the advice given me on the debian-exim list earlier this 
month, where I had posted a similar question.  Brian has already 
mentioned that thread in an earlier message.]

Perhaps someone who knows for sure what the line-endings ought to be 
could chime in.
